So Big Bad Wolf - were you expecting Obama to fix a problem in his first 6 months that has been brewing for oh... 70 years?
Did you read my comments - acknowledging Palestine, instead of the "future state of Palestine" is a HUGE change in US policy. And there is a reason it was well-received by the Middle East. It's the first time we've used this language. Yes, there needs to be concrete action to follow but everything starts from here.
Oh & those wall street scoundrels that underwrote his campaign - do tell who exactly they are? B/C I would bet that most of his top donors were not CEOs of the banks and automotive companies
And really - 10% on food stamps and 20% unemployment? Do cite some figures for that as well - I would be quite interested in that.
Good God, what has happened to normal, civil political discourse? I don't think Obama is the savior, I am not a single-party voter and I enjoy discussing ideas and theories. Yet it seems it so many ways, that isn't possible anymore. There are those that froth that "Obama is a Muslin (sic), wasn't born in the US, is the anti-christ, etc. And then those who scream he is betraying his party by not pulling troops out today, spending money on defense, etc. Where are the real discussions?
